The lesson plan must include a clear alignment with appropriate national health education standards and Healthy People 2020 objectives, with exact standards and objectives entered verbatim. It should contain measurable learning objectives for both health knowledge and skills, demonstrating high-level cognitive verbs where applicable. The lesson should begin with an engaging motivational introduction that actively involves learners and assesses prior knowledge through interactive strategies such as games, brain-storming, or skits.
The content section must detail major concepts, big ideas, and skill steps, supported with relevant materials and handouts. The strategies for teaching knowledge and skills should be well described, including differentiation to meet diverse learner needs, and involving active learning such as skill practice or application. Each strategy must have a clear conclusion and a transition to the next activity, ensuring a cohesive flow toward achieving the lesson objectives.
Assessment methods should be identified for each teaching strategy with specific descriptions, including various formats such as selected response, constructed response, demonstration, or performance-based evaluations. An assessment planning chart should be attached, summarizing the total number of assessment methods used, clearly labeled and described. The lesson concludes with a recap that aligns students’ focus back onto the lesson objectives, reinforced through structured closing activities.
The full lesson plan must cover all required elements outlined in the sample format, including instructor name, grade, duration, health topic, lesson title, standards, objectives, materials, motivating introduction, content outline, teaching strategies with transitions, assessment plan, and proper references if resources are used.
Proper preparation requires answering the guiding questions: selecting appropriate health topics, standards, objectives, content progression, teaching strategies, differentiation, and closure methods, with a focus on active engagement and measurable results.
